And My Vote For President Goes To…
… Merv Stoltzfus! I believe Merv is the man who can reach across the aisle and bring this country back together. As we look ahead to the future, President Stoltzfus can lead this nation through our current troubles with his wise and discerning leadership. Plus, he’s a good friend and our Conference Minister. Here’s a Continue reading

Shorebirds & Zooperstars
Last weekend Carolyn and I went to a Shorebirds game. It was the first time I’ve seen them lose this year. It was a pitchers’ duel until the end of the game when the Shorebirds allowed runners to score from third on a passed ball–twice in a row. But it was still fun. Between innings Continue reading

Cinderella’s New Palace
About a month or so ago Carolyn got a tadpole for her classroom. As I’ve mentioned before, the kids decided to name the tadpole Cinderella. (The girls in that class outnumbered the dudes 14-8.) Poor Cinderella seems to be developmentally challenged. She’s never changed. At all. In fact, the last day of school, one of Continue reading

Wolf Babies, Among Others
A couple days ago Carolyn and I went to the zoo in Salisbury. About three or four weeks ago the two wolves there had babies. We’ve been at least a couple times since then hoping to see them, but were unable to catch a glimpse of them until Sunday. They never left the den, but Continue reading

Put Me In, Coach!
We kicked off the new series “Play Ball!” yesterday at CrossWay. This is a triplecord series that we’re doing together with the Gathering Tree, SonRise, and the Ocean City Worship Center. The first part in this four-week series, which we did yesterday, is “Put Me In, Coach.” We looked at how a typical baseball game Continue reading

Good Thing They’re Not Graded On Forgery Skills
In Carolyn’s classroom, there are two kinds of kids at the end of the day: walkers and riders. In older grades the walkers actually walk home, but in kindergarten it just means that their parents pick them up. The riders ride the bus. Sometimes a walker will become a rider on a particular day, and Continue reading

Shorebirds’ McCurry Dominates
Yesterday was the last day game (except for Sundays) for the Shorebirds, so I went. Nice to have a job with flexibility–something I make sure not to take for granted! It was truly a great game! The guy who started on the mound for the Shorebirds, Cole McCurry, was 0-4 coming into the game and Continue reading

Oooohhhhh Yeahhh
Carolyn’s really been cooking some great stuff the past couple days! Last night she made some delicious Chesapeake Chicken. It totally rocked. Tonight it was chicken enchiladas, followed by a yummy strawberry dessert. The picture below was taken with my phone in bad lighting–the enchiladas were not actually green: I wonder what’s up for tomorrow Continue reading

Hey, Old People Like Cake Too!
This past weekend Carolyn and I went to Pennsylvania and stayed with Kristen & Michael. Both of them greatly enjoy the fact that I’m three years older than them, so I’m really excited that they have now entered the 30 club. Unfortunately my birthday falls close enough to theirs to enable them each year to Continue reading

Summer 2008
This summer is shaping up to be a very exciting one! Our plans for the summer include exactly three things: (1) Work hard. (2) Play hard. (3) Rest hard. Work hard: Okay, so Carolyn’s not planning to work too hard, although she probably will anyway because she doesn’t like doing nothing. She’s helping out with Continue reading
